Will Oldham “Songs Of Love And Horror” (Domino, 2018)

November 26, 2018 Alan O'Hare 0
Will Oldham is one of a kind. Sure, the tools of his trade and how he uses them are as old as the hills, but there’s something startlingly original about this master craftsmen. Some of his […]

Paul Collins “Out Of My Head” (Alive Naturalsound Records, 2018)

November 26, 2018 Jonathan Aird 0
‘Out Of My Head‘ is an unashamedly nostalgic album, hearkening back to a classic ’60s sound with jangly Rickenbacker, stomping drums and songs about music and girls and dreams of the future that should be taken […]

Pale Mara “Pale Mara” (Independent, 2018)

November 26, 2018 Peter Churchill 0
How best to sum up Pale Mara? By saying that the collaboration of Allison Robinson and Lee Godleski is an easy listen, does that damn this debut album with faint praise? The Cambridge English Dictionary definition of […]

November 23, 2018 Jeremy Searle 0
